Samet joined MRM in August 1994 as a management supervisor from Ogilvy & Mather in New York where she had been vice president on the American Express corporate card business.
In May 2007, Samet was part of the leadership that supported the Verizon win, which is also handled out of the MRM Worldwide New York headquarters. Verizon was the biggest win for the agency network in the U.S. last year.
